I Love Bill Henson’s landscape images. The dark areas have the most beautiful gradation of tonality. Thank you Mr Henson. I admire and am greatly moved by your landscape images.

artistic influences

"Art was always to me a means of getting in contact with another world..... you could never see that other world and were never told about it, but art seemed to always be kind of touching it."

I have just had the best fun experimenting with getting some ‘Kimberley rust/browns/reds’ and have found that by using just 3 colours I can get so many of these beautiful shades. This is just a small sample of the selection of the possibilities available when I mixed Phlalo Blue(red), Cadmium Red Deep Hue and Cadmium Orange Hue. This is so exciting!

play

I was asked at an artist talk which I presented recently how I came up with all my ideas. I think what is really important for me is play. There are many different aspects of play in my life. Laughing and having fun with my husband, boys and friends, and then there is playing through exploration of subject matter, location, equipment and settings. I’m always exploring a new way to look and think about things, and I continue to do this through the lens by experimentation. A lot of the time the images are duds, but every now and then a gem appears, and something in my belly knows I have touched on something which deserves further exploration.
